Janet,

I could not find any plant by that name in any of my databases. The description sounds a bit like a Datura but then again that just doesn't really fit that well. You might try checking the following web site for a Datura photo to see if this is it.

If not you can try again with a more detailed description of blooms, leaves, etc. You may also want to take a photo to your local County Extension Office to see if they can identify it as we are not able to receive photos in our Q&A system.

Thanks for the question. Please stop in again soon!
